   I'd like to add the_category tag to the Loop's class="post but need to remove the extra mark-up. Can I use strip_tags and then split them? Something like this perhaps:
   <div class="post <?= split(strip_tags(the_category()))[0]; ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

   Thanks for the help.

   I think you should use get_the_category instead of the_category functions.

   I can't seem to add that PHP to class="post without the whole page going blank... I'll keep at it.

   I've had some success with this though there is still the anchor that needs to be removed:
   <div class="post <?php (strip_tags(":",the_category(','))); ?>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

   Thanks

   You are right! This worked perfectly:
   

   <div class="post <?php
   $category = get_the_category();
   echo $category[0]->category_nicename;
   ?>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

   Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
